Kristi's March Chookshed update...

 Happy Spring!


My #2 project was to find the color in my fabric stash with the most fabric and make a quilt using that color. After enjoying the trip through my collection of fabric 😍 I discovered that color was orange!






Most of my quilts I donate to Project Linus  https://www.projectlinus.org so I looked around for a kids print in my stash to go with the orange and found these dinosaurs!  I love dinosaur fabric. Plus I usually try to make quilts for boys.




Then finding a pattern from my favorite pattern shop Villa Rosa! https://villarosadesigns.com I chose Monterey!




And here is the final top!




Out of respect for the pattern designer, I won't show the steps but for those of you with an eagle eye, I did adjust the sewing technique a wee bit so the dinosaurs would be all one piece. 

I'm not sure if I'll get it quilted by the end of March. I have a few others already in the queue.

Happy sewing!
Kristi

  2. Didn't you do well, its a great finish. I like to make sure I stitch donation quilts for boys as well, so they don't miss out.

  4. Well done Kristi. A great use of your orange fabrics and the dinosaurs are the perfect match. I like the way you were able to keep the dinosaurs as a larger block. Some boy will love it.
